In this paper, we studied dc leakage current properties analysis of LED lamps of road and landscape lighting when leakage current appeared in dc power line. Generally, converter of LED lighting is divides to insulated type and non-insulated type according to components. When electric leakage happened in AC power line, earth leakage breaker(ELB) senses leakage current and interrupts electric circuit. In dc power source, We need experimental verification about dc electric leakage for electricity safety. In normal wiring conditions and in the water, in case of using insulated type of converter, dc leakage current did not occur. However, in case of using non-insulated type of converter, dc leakage current occurred and passed through into the ground. We found that there is a hazard of electric shock by dc leakage current. We expect that the results of these studies would be helpful for electrical safety of LED lamps for road and landscape lighting.

As electric shock accident take place frequently, electrical safety is extremely important to prevent them. This paper describes the characteristics of electric shock. In order to examine it, an experimental apparatus including a model of a human body is fabricated and the magnitude of the voltage held by the model is measured under several conditions as follows;(1) the model is not contacted to an electric pole and a step voltage does not exist. (2) the model is not contacted to an electric pole and a step voltage exists. (3) the model is contacted to an electric pole and a step voltage does not exist (4) the model is contacted to an electric pole and a step voltage exists. As a result of the experiment it is found that the voltage held by the model depends on the step voltage as well as the voltages applied to the electric pole.

The effect of monoclinic $ZrO_2$(pure) and tetragonal $ZrO_2$ containing 5.35wt% $Y_2$$O_3$(Y-TZP) addition on the mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of $Al_2$$O_3$ ceramic were investigated. The addition of $ZrO_2$(m) and Y-TZP increased sintering density of $Al_2$$O_3$. The vickers hardness increased with increasing the volume fraction of Y-TZP going through a maximum at 20wt%. The hardness of the specimens was found to be depend on the sintering density. With increasing the volume fraction of $ZrO_2$(m) and Y-TZP, the fracture toughness of the composite is increased. This result may be taken as evidence that toughening of ${Al_2}{O_3}$ can also be achieved by the transformation toughening and microcrack toughening of $ZrO_2$. The property of the& shock for ${Al_2}{O_3}$-$ZrO_2$ composites was improved by increasing the volume fraction of monoclinic $ZrO_2$(pure).Grain size increased with increasing the volume fraction of $ZrO_2$.

소형 위성 발사체 KSLV-I은 2단의 추진기관으로 고체 킥 모터(Kick Motor)를 사용한다. 킥 모터의 연소 중에는 진동 및 충격이 발생하게 된다. 킥 모터는 2단 전자 탑재물 베이의 하단에 연결되어 있고 연소 중 발생하는 진동 및 충격이 킥 모터의 동체를 통해 전자탑재 베이로 전달 될 수 있다. 전자 탑재물로 전달되는 진동 및 충격의 크기가 큰 경우 전자탑재물의 오작동을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 킥 모터의 연소 중 발생하는 진동, 충격의 사전검증이 필요하다. 본 연구는 킥모터의 지상 연소 시험을 통해 연소 중 발생하는 진동을 계측하고 이를 바탕으로 랜덤 진동 및 충격 응답 스펙트럼을 분석하였다.

The effect of electric shock on human body is enormousness, which leads to warmth, tingling, and even death. The mean values of perception currents obtained on 91 men and 39 women are about 0.77(mA) for men and 0.57(mA) for women. The mean value for women is approximately seven tenths that of men. An individual can tolerate, with no adverse effects, repeated exposure to the reactions associated with currents of his let-go level, and the mean value of let-go currents obtained from 27 normal men is 6.29(mA). Lethal currents flowing human body is very dangerous even for a short time. So, it is necessary to have recourse to animal experiments ot determine lethal current for human. An analysis of experimental data indicates that body weight and shock duration are important factors in determining the lethal current. It is suggested that the relationship between current and shock duration is given by I=K/.root.T, and lethal current is proportional to body weight, where I is the current in milliampere, and T is the time in seconds.

Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas have pioneered a new field of plasma for biomedical application bridging plasma physics and biology. Biological and medical applications of plasmas have attracted considerable attention due to promising applications in medicine such as electro-surgery, dentistry, skin care and sterilization of heat-sensitive medical instruments [1]. Traditional approaches using electronic devices have limits in heating, high voltage shock, and high current shock for patients. It is a great demand for plasma medical industrial acceptance that the plasma generation device should be compact, inexpensive, and safe for patients. Microwave-excited micro-plasma has the highest feasibility compared with other types of plasma sources since it has the advantages of low power, low voltage, safety from high-voltage shock, electromagnetic compatibility, and long lifetime due to the low energy of striking ions [2]. Recent experiment [2] shows three-log reduction within 180-s treatment of S. mutans with a low-power palm-size microwave power module for biomedical application. Experiments using microwave plasma are discussed. This low-power palm-size microwave power module board includes a power amplifier (PA) chip, a phase locked loop (PLL) chip, and an impedance matching network. As it has been a success, more compact-size module is needed for the portability of microwave devices and for the various medical applications of microwave plasma source. For the plasma generator, a 1.35-GHz coaxial transmission line resonator (CTLR) [3] is used. The way of reducing the size and enhancing the performances of the module is examined.

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle(HFCV) is system that uses electrical energy of fuel cell stack to main power source, which is different system with other vehicles that use high-voltage, large-current. Isolation performance of this system which is connected with electrical fire and electrical shock is important point. Isolation resistance of electric installation is divided according to working voltage, it follows criterion more than $100{\Omega}$/VDC (or $500{\Omega}$/VAC) about system operation voltage in a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. Although measurement of isolation resistance in a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle is two methods, it uses mainly measurement by megger. However, the present isolation resistance measurement system that is optimized to use in electrical facilities is unsuitable for isolation performance estimation of a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle because of limit of maximum short current and difference of measurement resolution. Therefore, this research developed the isolation resistance measurement system so that may be suitable in isolation performance estimation of a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, verified isolation performance about known resistance by performance verification of laboratory level about developed system, and executed performance verification through comparing results of developed system by performance verification of vehicle level with ones of existing megger. Developed system is judged to aid estimation and upgrade of isolation performance in a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle hereafter.

Endotoxic shock causes death in humans and animals via extreme hypoperfusion of peripheral organs. A massive production of nitric oxide (NO) both from the endothelical cells and smooth muscle cells has been proposed as a possible mechanism in this process. Since NO attenuated the contractility to vasoconstricting agents such as norepinephrine (NE) by directly acting on the smooth muscle cells, this mechanism was considered mainly as a postsynaptic mechanism. In this research it was investigated whether NO, thus released, also participates in the presynaptic events for the regulation of vascular tone in endotoxic shock. The role of NO was studied by adding NO donors or NO synthase inhibitor $N^\omega $methyl-L-arginine (NMA) in stimulated sympathetic nerves of the mesenteric vascular bed and the Langendorff heart of rats. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP), an NO donor, reduced the pressor responses of isolated mesenteric artery either to electrical stimulation or exogenously administered phenylephrine (PE). In this mesentery, although neither agent influenced NE release, in the presence of the adrenergic $\alpha_2$-receptor antagonist yohimbine, elecrical stimulation-evoked NE release was augumented by SNP. In the heart SNP facilitated the NE release induced by electrical stimulation, while NMA had no effect. From these results it is proposed that there exists a local reflex phenomenon in the junction between the sympathetic nerve terminals and the smooth muscle of resistance blood vessels; by which sympathetic responses are reduced by NO at the postjunctional level while NO facilitates NE release contributing to augumentation of sympathetic tone. All these facts suggest that NO produced during endotoxic shock has dual effects: whereas NO blunts the vasoconstrictive activity of NE at the postsynaptic level, NO presynaptically facilitates the release of NE from sympathetic nerve terminals.

The grounding of an electrical system is one of the essential elements for public safety. Domestic practice of grounding system design has been to get grounding resistance values which are classified by facilities or equipment in the regulations. But the concept of grounding system design of IEC is, as a main factor of safety index, to consider touch voltage and step voltage instead of the resistance value itself. Recently IEC actively develops or revises safety related standards which are essential for the grounding system performance. In this paper, we present the recent trend of the international standards on the safety criteria for Electric Shock Protection.
